Retro-Vintage Decor

My sister-in-law Hannah went with a retro-vintage decorating theme for their wedding and reception.

It was so cute!!

(Side note: this is during the recessional; he swept her off her feet and carried her up the aisle! How cute is that!) Here you can see the arbor with greenery and flowers, and the candles lining the aisle.

This blackboard sign and tulle graced one side of the entrance to the reception.

The vintage cake topper was the same one Grandpa and Grandma Dunham had on
their wedding cake many years ago.

Antique drawers were filled with colorful old-fashioned candy.

Photo booth (quilt and decorative drapes) with a chalk board and various things you could wear (mustaches, old glasses, big lips, 50's hats, cane, dainty umbrella) or sit on (old bicycle, antique chair). I didn't get any of the really good pictures, but here's a few to give you an idea!

Also, in the buffet line, old wash basins were filled with ice, and one held a huge bowl of potato salad, another a big bowl of pasta salad, and two others held retro-style glass bottles of pop!

Haha, yeah, we should have! It would have been really easy to have lots of fun with it all except, at the time, lots of other people wanted a picture there, too. :) So we just opted for a few 'nice' pictures!
